We would love to introduce JZO a menswear Fashion brand founded in 2014 by the Creative Duo of Joseph O. Ike and Olamide E. Akindeinde, fashion enthusiasts with a unique perspective on African Fashion as a whole and menswear in particular. The JZO perspective could best be described as a modern minimalist retelling of traditional African themes.
JZOs D/H'16 (Dry/Hammattan) Collection, "Aremo" (Yoruba for Heir Apparent) is inspired by the modern day struggle of the African Male to adopt a contemporary style while retaining his traditional identity.Aremo Collection features a blend of non traditional jackets with rebellious play on symmetry, and lapel features (or absence) the pieces are made entirely from handwoven custom made Aso-Oke Fabrics detailed with elaborate hausa fulani Aiki-Sama Embroidery all in JZOs standard color palate.
